Introducing the Query object

To remove the issues we are experiencing here, we are going to start building our page objects using something designed to get around the problems noted earlier: the Query object.

First of all, you will need to add the following dependency to your POM.xml file:

<dependency>
     <groupId>com.lazerycode.selenium</groupId>
     <artifactId>query</artifactId>
     <version>1.2.0</version>
     <scope>test</scope>
 </dependency>

package com.masteringselenium.query_page_objects;

import com.masteringselenium.DriverBase;
import org...
